President Muhammadu Buhari says he is disheartened by the unauthorised release of 295 tankers of smuggled petroleum products by security officials at the land borders.
Nigeria’s land borders have been closed since August 2019 to checkmate smuggling of arms and food items.
I have approved the recommendations of the Board of Inquiry set up by the NSA to investigate the release, without due authorization, of 295 smuggled petroleum tankers, by some security officials charged with the important responsibility of protecting Nigeria’s borders.— Muhammadu Buhari (@MBuhari) February 29, 2020
After the closure, the federal government directed that petroleum products should not be supplied to fuel stations within 20 kilometers of the borders.
